Rovers Vs Harrogate

[Plumbster]

I would take off Tommy, JT and Ironside if they don’t improve second half

[Barmby Rover]

I think it will be Taylor coming off at 60, Sotona on at that point. Maybe Roe off and Biggins on if things haven't improved in midfield.

[Barmby Rover]

For all the talk pre-season there has been little use of the wings so far.

[coventryrover]

Omg Taylor should have scored.    So much time and no pace on the shot.    Keeper out of contention

[ScillyRover]

Taylor waited an eternity there instead of hitting the ball first time. Should have been a certain goal that.

[Barmby Rover]

Should be one up. Keep up the movement and more will come.

[Metalmicky]

Hope this Wrexham bollox calms down - BBC covering every move as always...

3:1 down now at least....

[Metalmicky]

Nottingham County 3 down

[Barmby Rover]

Bugger.

[Drover]

Shi+

[ScillyRover]

Unbelievable decision there… never a penalty

[ScillyRover]

This ref is just dreadful.

[Peebles Rover]

Have we made subs?

[ScillyRover]

Roberts, Sotona and Miller on

[Barmby Rover]

25-30 minutes left, plenty of time if Rovers pull their fingers out.

[Dabby]

Have we made subs?

DOUBLE SUBSTITUTION
And it's two debutants entering play for Rovers.

OFF

Tommy Rowe, Jon Taylor

ON

Tyler Roberts, Deji Sotona.

[Dabby]

ATTENDANCE: 7,126 (433 away)

[BentleyBorn]

Good job it's only the first game of the season.......

[Guernsey Exile]

Miller on for Ironside

[ChrisBx]

Just the 14 minutes of added time...

[BentleyBorn]

I'm only watching the BBC text commentary,  but this is painful.

[dknward2]

Thankfully this is game 1 of 46 would have been nice to get a good result but just not at it in the first half

[Pancho Regan]

Whatever the final score, this is so much better than last season in terms of effort, endeavour, energy and commitment.

[drfcsteve]

Decent attendance hope we haven’t put off any floating fans

[Barmby Rover]

As they were shaping up they could have given them another 45 minutes and still they wouldn't have scored. More work to come GM.

[ScillyRover]

I would like to see Sotona and Roberts starting home games in the hope we can get a goal or two ahead instead of bringing them on when chasing the game. We were transformed when those two came on.

[Plumbster]

Enjoyed the second half but worrying lack of quality and guile going forward. Never a penalty- the clue should have been that no one even appealed but they deserved the win- their 9 and 12 were a class above anything we had

[Bessie Red]

Their no.8 bossed the midfield all game until he went off!

[glosterred]

Better football but sadly same result. Grant must have said something to the ref at full time as I noticed he was shown the yellow card with a flourish by the ref. Possibly something to do with the poor decision for the penalty.

Onwards and upwards
